View to Jerusalem

View to Jerusalem

This is a view looking south from the rooftop of Nebi Samwil.  Note the hills in the center of the image along with the upper reaches of the Soreq Valley system.

On the horizon, going from center to the left note the three towers on the top of the Mount of Olives: the Church of the Ascension, the Augusta Victoria Hospital, and the Hebrew University.  To the right of the rightmost apartment building is a low saddle.  Just beyond that, and below and beyond the horizon is the city of Bethlehem
